Data Driven Compliance: eCom Surveillance and Cybersecurity Data Management

Are you struggling to keep up with the ever-changing compliance programs in your business? Look no further than the award-winning Data Driven Compliance podcast, hosted by Tom Fox, which is a podcast featuring an in-depth conversation around the uses of data and data analytics in compliance programs. Data Driven Compliance is back with another exciting episode The intersection of law, compliance, and data is becoming increasingly important in the world of cross-border transactions and mergers and acquisitions.

Data has become much more ubiquitous and needs to be incorporated into business processes. AI data cleansing helps to reduce false positives and provides context to alerts generated by the system. AI capabilities are divided into three categories: removing duplicative content, detecting risk, and providing context. AI-powered data cleansing strips out non-human generated content and focuses on what was sent by an individual. This helps to lower false positives in alerts generated by the system.

The need for eCom surveillance is increasing as communication sources become more varied. Slack, Zoom, Teams, Bloomberg chat, and Ice chat are all becoming commonplace, and companies need to be able to capture data from these sources. Artificial intelligence and machine learning models are being deployed to empower a compliance officer to focus on what’s important and be risk-based. Companies that have been hesitant about the cloud are now moving their data to the cloud.

The amount of voice business that is happening over Zoom and teams and other voice channels has skyrocketed. Regulators have been very clear that you need to capture and record that voice data. Customers have asked for more and more data sources to capture, including audio. Compliance teams need systems to manage collaboration, case management tools, and review tools. Technology allows compliance teams to no longer use Excel or SharePoint to manage their own internal processes.

The combination of technology and compliance is transforming the industry. Artificial intelligence capabilities have come a long way in the past few years and are already good enough to provide a lot of value to customers. The innovation over the next few years will be on the defensibility front, proving defensibly why something was alerted on and why something else was not. Technology is available to capture every data source that’s out there, and it is essential for compliance teams to leverage this technology to remain compliant and competitive.

 Key Highlights

·      Ecom Surveillance

·      Cybersecurity Data Management

·      AI and Compliance

Life with GDPR

Episode 31-Lessons Learned in Year 1 of GDPR, Part 1

In this podcast, data privacy/data security expert Jonathan Armstrong and Compliance Evangelist Tom Fox use the framework of GDPR to discuss a wide range of issues relating to these topics. They consider what the US compliance and InfoSec security expert needs to know about what is happening in the UK, Europe and beyond. In this episode, we begin a three-part series of some of the key lessons learned from the first year of GDPR. Some of the highlights in this episode include:
Do you have a plan? You need to have a plan for a data breach because it is not if but when you will be hacked. Armstrong advises you can be two plans; one for all employees which is straight-forward so that all employees will be able to understand it. You should have a second plan, which you rehearse which is for all compliance/IT/data security. It should be process driven so it allows flexibility for those responding.
Know your data and know your third parties. Many companies have disaggregated data because they have so many vendors and platforms where data is stored. You must know who has your data. Do you have visibility into 3rd, 4thand 5thparties from the data perspective? You should also capture where data is going in an organization, particularly customer and employee data. Finally, and sadly overlooked by many US companies is the question of data protection of a US parent when a UK/EU sub is audited?
Assemble your data response team now and practice, practice, practice.You need to look at your data security response. What does the A Team teach you about data response? You should strive for strength in diverse skills and practice your response. Look at PR rapid response, your compliance, your legal response all in addition to your IT/data security response. Regulators looking at share price drop off, this shows the need for a rapid, practiced response.

  1. What is two-factor authentication?
  2. How, when and where should your use it?
  3. What are the most common passwords still in use?
  4. Why are passwords one of the most basic forms of data security protection?
  5. What are the lessons to be learned?
